I had a bracelet (made of fake pearls and gold plated chain) which got snatched one time I was there. I was in a jeep on my way to a friend's house. I didn't realised that even fake jewelries will be snatched as well! I was annoyed at that time because it was one of my favourite accesories. The last time I went there (I had no choice) was when I had to get my measurements for the gown I need to wear for a friend's wedding (that was in 2009). I didn't bring anything with me, just a few change for jeepney rides going to and back to our house.
